Chapter 566: Chapter 566 The Director Personally Takes Action
Director Yu said with an apologetic face, "CEO Sheng, I was also compelled by circumstances. Did you know? The incident where Han Ruixin and her daughter are being pursued has escalated into an international event. Moreover, Han Ruixin has already appeared at the police station to file a complaint against you all. Her mother’s body has been examined, and it was indeed inflicted with a fatal dagger wound, bleeding to death."
Sun Nanjue sneered, "That dead woman actually had the guts to do it!"
"CEO Sheng, did you... after all have..." Director Yu hesitated.
Sheng Shaochen smiled, "Director Yu, you couldn’t possibly believe that Han Ruixin’s words, could you? You’ve always been astute; this doesn’t seem like your style."
"Well, of course, I trust you guys, but the pressure from public opinion is indeed too great at the moment. So I’m here to inform you that we have accepted Han Ruixin’s request to start an official investigation, and in a few days, we might need to summon you all to court."
As Director Yu spoke, he didn’t forget to remind, "Although we are also working hard to investigate and hope to clear things up for you soon, if possible, you could also conduct a covert investigation. If you discover any important leads, please contact us promptly."
"Alright, Director Yu, thank you for your troubles, please take care." Sheng Shaochen watched the fleet of police cars leave before he realized that the perimeter of Shengjing Garden was already surrounded by an indeterminate number of radicals. No wonder Director Yu came with police cars; one of the reasons was that the police knew Shengjing Garden had been targeted and wanted to prevent the public from criticizing the police for inactivity. By showing up at Shengjing Garden, they might not silence the murmurs, but at least everyone could see the police were working on it.
"Sun Nanjue, Ah Chen, come quickly, Ye Shu has a stomachache!" Ou Linlin’s panicked voice suddenly came from upstairs.
Sheng Shaochen ran upstairs quickly and saw Ye Shu clutching her abdomen, moaning in pain, large beads of sweat already breaking out on her face.
"Don’t be afraid; we’ll go to the hospital right away!" Sheng Shaochen picked up Ye Shu and began to head downstairs, but his steps quickly halted. Outside were all radicals; if they were stopped by them, Ye Shu’s condition would undoubtedly worsen!
So, he called Sun Nanjue over to give a few instructions, to which Sun Nanjue nodded and went off to carry them out.
At this time, due to Han Ruixin’s appearance at the police station and her kneeling in front of the media and the public, pleading for justice for her mother’s death, the whole issue had undergone a second wave of escalation, and more and more people were heading to Shengjing Garden.
Among these people, some were there to watch the spectacle, some were responding to calls for criticism on the internet, and even more were deliberately inciting others, turning the vicinity of Shengjing Garden, located on the outskirts of the city, into an increasingly bustling scene.
One radical was instigating the overly enthusiastic netizens who had come to support, "The Sheng Family is wealthy and powerful. That wretched woman Ye Shu relies on such a background to indulge her, so she becomes more and more lawless, trampling on people’s lives. Everyone must unite; we can’t handle them fighting alone. Now that our numbers are increasing, maybe Ye Shu will get scared after seeing us and will try to slip away. So, once we see her car coming out, we should swarm it and take her straight to the police station."
As they were talking, suddenly someone said, "A car is coming out, a car is coming out!"
"Good, everyone get ready, success or failure hinges on this moment!" The radical gestured for everyone to prepare, and they all hid by the speed bumps. There was a particularly high speed bump at the connection between Shengjing Garden and the outside world, providing the perfect spot to intercept the car.
